I have a poliwog. Great office knife. It's in my back pocket as I type this. :D


On the days where I don't have a poliwog in my pocket, the lava is there to take its place. ;)

I do not own one and I do not like the design. I do not want to own one either. ;)

I have one. It is the the first Spyderco knife that I purchased. I love it. A lot of cutting power in a relatively small package. Looks cool too. I have since purchased 7 other Spyderco models and looking for more.
It's better to have knife and not need it than to need a knife and not have it.

Hey All, I Have One :cool: . It's a very unique design and is an "Eye Catcher", mostly for it's "High Tech" Look. Built Bomb Proof ;) .

God Bless :)

i don't own one, but like the looks and gadget-factor of the satin finished one

i don't think i'll ever buy it though. for a small knife, it's rather wide, heavy and somewhat expensive; plus i got three Dragonflies and a Military to take care for

(yep, just one Millie left. i tweaked the liner-lockup and pivotting some more of my older cpm440v'er and gave it to a good friend of mine, just one hour ago)

The Poliwog is my wife's favorite of all my knives. She finds it easy to hold and use. She also finds the ball lock easy to use. The arthritis in her wrists interferes with using some others.

thanks for the hint earthdog, my mom has arthroses in her wrists/hands too. maybe a ball-bearing spydie would be nice for her

but she's not a very knife-kind of person......are there any spyderco's with the ball-bearing lock that are small and sheepl-friendly?

from the top of my head i can think of three ball-bearers.....are there others i missed?:

I have one. Neat knife, but it gets very little carry time, so I'd only buy another if it were in G10 or CF.

I handled one at the A'dam show and would have had one (or two) if they came fully serrated as well :(

I talked to Eric about this and he said (IIRC that is) that he would consider it in the near future.


Well Eric, how about it????? :confused: ;)
